The sandy clay roof had doubtless tended to the preser- 
vation in this spot of the fossil shells and fragments found 
below. They are nowhere common, though occasionally 
aggregated in horizontal patches. 
A series of the shells and fragments found during repeated 
visits was exhibited. 
The whole assortment of fossils might be denoted as 
Arctic, but with a characteristic infusion of tc Celtic ” or 
British-Atlantic species, or otherwise as glacial within the 
British province; the series already indicating the character 
of the present provincial association of species, though under 
glacial conditions, and with many northern forms. 
In the table of species, as follows, is added a list of species 
identified from Mr. Trimmer’s original specimens in the 
Museum of the Geological Society, London, by Mr. J. Gwyn 
Jeffreys, F.R.S., F.G.S. 
Scale of frequency: a, abundant; c, common; f, frequent; 
r, rare; v r, very rare.
